Grimm, the latest literature-inspired release from video game creator American McGee, offers players a twisted take on on some of the western world's best-known fairytales, including Cinderella, Puss and Boots, and Little Red Riding Hood. Players can choose the "light" setting for their virtual world (think flowers and butterflies) or the "dark" setting (heavier on the morgues and vermin):



Looks fun, although even the darker version looks closer to a Powerpuff Girls episode than the original source material. The game is broken into 24 standalone 30-minute-long "episodes", each one focusing on a different story. New episodes will come out weekly.
